Unprotected cycle parking in Hanover Street damaged by drivers, and uncontrolled car parking obstructing access.
Contraflow cycle lane in Gordon Street, with full size cycle signals. The section of Gordon Street across Union Street has reverted to restricted two-way operation, with the station link bus now back serving the front of Central Station.
The signs in Sauchiehall Street have at long last been changed to 'No Motor Vehicles' in place of 'No Vehicles', recognising that it has been legal to cycle there ever since it was made a Core Path some years ago.
The view from the cycle lane in Clyde Street. The left turn is unsignalled, with zebra crossings for pedestrians, while the straight across movement is signalled separately from motor traffic coming from Clyde Street. Perhaps a cycle slip … [more]
The finished product at the Clyde Street/Glasgow Bridge junction. Motor traffic is restricted to a single lane, and is signalled separately from the cycle traffic, removing the left hook danger. See also #194239.

A surface dressing has been applied to the now closed to motor traffic George Square East, outside the City Chambers.
The wet tyre tracks in the Gordon Street contraflow cycle lane reveal that some motorists are entering it in lieu of slowing down to make a tighter turn.
I'm not sure some people understand what the red and white barrier indicates. George Square east shut to all vehicular traffic, including cycles, and possibly also applies to SUVs too. The car was driven out over the fancy stone footway … [more]
The junction of Renfield Street and Gordon Street, with the Union Street bus gate ahead, and the pop-up contraflow cycle lane on Gordon Street to the right. Proper 'No Right Turn except cycles' signs have been used on the traffic signals, … [more]
Advance signage for the Union Street bus gate, creating footway clutter where single pole cantilevered supports could have been used.
A nonsense map (as far as cycle routes are concerned) in Glasgow's Queen Street railway station. What's so good about West Regent Lane for cycling?
The newly built section of the Waterloo St cycle track has been surfaced with little stone blocks, and features this sharp deviation around a new layby. In the background is the toucan crossing across to the Anderston Bridge.
A brand new section of cycle track on Waterloo St, which has been surfaced with silly stone blocks, with little to distinguish it from the footway, unlike the rest of Waterloo St where the distinction is much clearer.
Direction sign for secure cycle parking in Cadogan Square partly obscured by whatever UB07 signifies. The size of the text also makes it hard to see, and the sign at the next junction is even less conspicuous.
The bins seem to have gone, but more bike parking is still needed in Cambridge Street. One bike looked like it was abandoned. This will be an important parking location for anyone new to cycling when the Woodside mini-Holland is built.
As if the Broomielaw shared-use footway wasn't bad enough in its own right, there is vertical upstand on the kerb at this private car park entrance.
Cycle hire point and cycle parking stands removed to make way for temporary queuing arrangements at Queen Street station.
Despite the wet weather on this Saturday afternoon in October, the Cambridge Street cycle parking at Sauchiehall Street is completely full. More stands needed, and the commercial bins are still being stored against the stands.
Cycle parking on Sauchiehall Street, on the right-hand side of Hope Street. None across the road accessed from the left.
Buchanan Street pedestrian precinct is a Core Path, and according to various people at the council, cycling is allowed in both directions because of its Core Path status, but still the signs say 'No Vehicles'.
Flattened cycle parking stands in Stockwell Street, next to the contraflow bus lane. See #65108 taken two weeks earlier.
On +ve note, despite (NOT because of) infrastructure, still a lot of bikes to be seen in city #GlasgowCycleInfraDay http://t.co/WD8kgTkOuF
The start of the Waterloo Street cycle track features a short section of painted cycle lane without physical segregation. This is why it has to be like that. The "Wait Here" marking seen in #53704 has now been erased, since it was wrong on … [more]
The Cathedral Street Bridge has reopened after strengthening, and continues to be bus, taxi and cycles only.
Cycle parking well used on a frosty morning in November, although the nearest bike in the picture has a flat tyre
The stop line for the traffic signals is in the foreground, but there is a "Wait Here" marking on the pedestrian crossing. UPDATE: #62829 shows the "Wait Here" has been removed, and the reason why.
Cycle parking stands outside back entrance to city chambers, but No Vehicles signs preventing use of roadway through arch to get to University of Strathclyde avoiding the busiest city centre roads.
Only 3 cycle parking stands were provided at the top of Union Street, but more are required, and there's space for a few more.
Contraflow cycle lane on one-way section of West Nile Street. This allows cyclists direct access from the north side of city centre through to Argyle Street, on a road parallel to the busy Renfield Street.
Covered cycle parking outside RSAMD in Glasgow City Centre, seen out of term-time, but see close-up on #44074
Cycle parking stands at Queen Street station are now well used, so perhaps about time for another expansion (update of #29108)
